The Ownership Right to Land
Hakrová, Kateřina ; Franková, Martina (advisor) ; Humlíčková, Petra (referee)
The thesis deals with issues relating to the ownership of land, analysing it on two different levels. On the first level, it defines the ownership of the land, particularly its object and subject, and also describes the specific properties of soil, and their manifestations in land property rights and related legislation. On the second level, the work discusses selected institutes in terms of problematic issues that have arisen in connection with the introduction of the Act no. 89/2012 Coll., Civil Code, which has brought into our legal system new institutes or modified to some extent the old ones. The thesis compares the current and the previous legislation and with the aid of the specialized literature seeks to answer the question whether it is possible to perceive these changes positively or whether they are considered rather negative and problematic.
